Russian Roulette (Hannibal Jones series) written by Austin S. Camacho
About the book
Washington D.C.'s professional troubleshooter, Hannibal Jones, is enraged when he is forced to take a case at gunpoint. His client is a Russian assassin who will kill Hannibal's beloved, Cindy Santiago, if Hannibal refuses to help him. With no choice, Hannibal agrees to investigate the smooth, wealthy Algerian who has stolen the heart of the woman his new client loves.
At first the case looks simple - what woman would not choose a rich African businessman over a professional killer? His view changes when evidence surfaces connecting the Algerian to Russian mob money and the apparent suicide of the girl's father several years earlier. Further investigation reveals that the Algerian may not be who he says he is. Then more deaths follow, closing in on the Algerian and the girl. At first working only to protect Cindy's life, Hannibal is soon chasing the truth for its own sake and must fight his way through past lies, present jealousies and the Red Mafiya to finally learn the real reason that death is stalking the couple.

Reviews
"Hannibal Jones is a man you go to in order to get the job done, and in Russian Roulette Jones isn't given a choice about his new job. Just as I need coffee to start each day, I need the books by Camacho in my reading pile. Fast paced with terrific action this book satisfies on many levels. The settings are wonderful and the characters are well drawn. Russian Roulette starts with a revving engine and picks up speed till racing across the finish line. If I were in trouble I'd want Hannibal Jones on my speed dial." – Jon Jordan, Editor, Crimespree Magazine
"An atmospheric, entertaining read. Long live troubleshooter Hannibal Jones! A brisk, detail-rich page-turner. Crisp and fresh, a sharp, finely-crafted page-turner.
Troubleshooter Hannibal Jones is the most engaging character to come upon the mystery scene since Patterson's Alex Cross. An energetic mix of murder and international intrigue. Austin Camacho is a talent to watch." – JoAnn Ross, NY Times bestselling author of the High Risk series
